Your Plans Tonight: Winsor Gallery

The holiday season has officially begun. Here’s how to kick it off right with an unexpected and entirely awesome weekday evening:

Start by leaving work and changing into something you feel good in (check). If you’re hungry, drop by Bao Bei for some fried rice and a cocktail. Then, strike gold by checking out Winsor Gallery‘s chic little pop-up, tonight only, featuring sugarplum sweet jewelry by Melanie Auld, street art-inspired pillows by Pillow Fight and luxe resort wear by Anna Kosturova. While ticking names off your shopping list, take a sneak peak at Winsor’s new winter collection, glass of wine in hand. An extra treat? While The Edition—a beautiful collection of artist prints hand-bound in black ribbon for gifting ease—is officially released later this week, giving you first access to lovely works by the likes of Fiona Ackerman and Bradley Harms (pictured). A unique and beautiful present.

Shopping and art? It’s the perfect way to welcome the holidays. —Adrienne Matei
